OF q Young Mons State Republican
League i'm New jersey.
The Young Mems Republican club of this
city held meeting in their rooms in the
Insurance building last night and it was well
| attended. President j. II. Howarth pre-
sided. The members voted to have the club
room closed hereafter on Sunday. Fred R.
Bisse1l was elected a member. The secretary
read six applications for membership. The
treasurer's report was read and accepted and
showed that the club is in good financial
condition. F. A. Corbin was instructed to
organize glee club, and it was voted to pur-
chase register for the members to enroll
their names. President Howarth stated that
there were many who were members of the
club, but who had never visited the rooms.
Hereafter it was thought best to have all
who were elected members come to the
rooms first and enroll their names before
they could hardly be called members. In
this way it is thought to interest them SO
that they will attend the meetings regularly
President Howarth then stated that the
election of delegates to attend the National
Young Mems Republican league convention
in New York, to be held at Chickering Hall
on December IS, 16 and II, was in order.
He said the work of this convention was to
do all it could TO establish Young Mems Re-
publican clubs in every city, town and village
In the United States, and for those in the
various States to then form into
a.league. Connecticut was the first State to
form league of this kind. New Jersey on
NWK-I T. l.
Thompson of this city was present. He ad-
dressed the meeting and told them of the
work in store for the different clubs and
what the Connecticut has and is going to do.
His remarks were heartily received. Mr..
Thompson that evening attended rousing
meeting Of the Brooklyn Young Mems Re-
publican club, which is one of the most
hourishing in the country. Stewart L.
Woodford made the principal address.
The delegates elected last night are as fol-
lows: Wade q. Thompson, J. Rice Winchell,
Captain William 81. Pierpont, Frederick B.

ell declined, but was SO urgently requested
to be delegate, that he finally consented.

worth, r. A Corbin and A. M. Hitler.
| President Howarth then introduced to the
club Mr.. e. A. Hartshorn of Troy, N. Y,
who is stopping in this city for few days.
Mr.. Hartshorn is q leading manufacturer in
Troy and Is also a staunch advocate and
member of the American Protective Tariff
league. He explained to the club the OBJ
jects and designs of that league. The league
wants to get Thousand defenders of protec-
| ton to stand shoulder to shoulder with the
Golden club Of England, which has 141
| members in this country, five or six of whom
reside in New Haven. The league desires to
crush the Cobdenites, so that American in
dustries will be protected, and its managers
hope that Connecticut will do its duty in this
respect and organize auxiliary leagues and
secure defenders

Mr.. Hartshorn for his address and he was
invited to give more detailed address at a
future time. Mr.. Hartshorn is the author
